I remember few years ago someone telling me that Pope's brother in Poland was/is a JW. Can anyone verify that?

I think that was the Pope's sister that is JW.

Yes the popes cousin is living in Cooma NSW. An hour away from Canberra. She is an active JW. It made quite a stir when the pope got his position as it was around the same time as the local District Convention in Canberra. Popes cousin was in town and the Canberra Times actually interviewed her. Interesting bit of trivia.

The vast majority are in the entertainment field. Interesting. Hardly any scientists. No surprise, since being a scientist entails education.

I have heard from several sources that Michael Jackson's disassociation happened in 1987, shortly before he released his "Bad" album. He probably did get in trouble because of the Thriller video--and perhaps that created confusion. And likely he disassociated prior to Bad to avoid getting in trouble and so he could release it in peace.

However, I have no confirmation. It might be advisable to look it up on Google.

Ditto as to whether Prince is still in or not. And I have heard rumors, backed up by the latest two albums, that George Benson may have been disfellowshipped in 2005. Notably, his latest albums contain song titles that are suggestive of sex and drug use, which is an encouraging sign.

Finally, I have also heard that Xzibit is another former witless.

Seems so many are tied into jw's some how...

Add Michelle Rodriguez to the list. She was on "Lost" for a few seasons, but was killed off after serving time for a DUI in Honolulu.

She was on The View yesterday and said she was raised a JW, but "you know, you have to leave the womb sometime, and I wanted to make my own way and my own decisions".......direct quote, as near as I can remember. She and Sherry Shepherd high fived each other.

Anyone heard of Richard Sohl? Pianist. Died. I think he was with Patti Smith's group? Anyone know what became of his sisters and brother, Steve? They lived in Flusing Meadows, NY.
